  • ADAS is available in petrol variants only

  • The turbo petrol engine doesn't offer a manual transmission
  • Base variants have only 2 airbags, whereas many other SUVs in this category now provide 6 airbags
  • Although the Astor is longer, wider, and broader than other SUVs, its wheelbase isn't optimal, resulting in limited legroom at the rear

      5.0
      Great comfort car with little body roll. But absolute luxury, superb drive experience, and luxury in the car. Highway mileage is good at 15 to 17, but the city is a little low, but with busy traffic, you are still able to get between 9 and 11. The lowest is 8 kmpl on hard braking. 100% recommended if someone is looking to buy.
